Raspberry Pi Or Computer Stick OR Conventionally Assembled Desktop?
I am looking for a cheap setup to provide a very basic computer to be used by my parents (Browsing, Using Microsoft Office, Printing, Watching Movies).
It needs to be connected to an HD TV and wireless mouse and keyboard. Though I am inclined towards Computer sticks, I am also trying to figure out if setting up a raspberry pi is possible.
iBall computer stick (Rs 8500): http://www.amazon.in/gp/product/B011U0S6KO?psc=1&redire...
Raspberry (Rs 3900): http://www.amazon.in/Raspberry-Pi-Model-Starter-Officia...
P.S.: The last resort will be getting a conventionally assembled desktop computer.

I don't have access to Amazon at the moment, however the computer stick would be the best ***. Raspberry Pi runs on Linux which isn't bad per se, but its more geared towards people who want to fiddle with the OS and create add on machines and so forth. If the Computer stick comes with windows, I would go with that since it will be (in theory) easier to use and more compatible with things.
